50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Mountain View

“Got a burrito was really good. Our server , Sylvia recommended a margarita…it was great. So…great food, great drinks and great service.“

“Wonderful Sunday lunch last week. The fried cauliflower florets starter was great. Nicely fried, not greasy with a good thick pesto labane sauce. We loved the muhamarra with the fried pita strips. Had some the next day and it was still fantastic. The chicken pita sandwich was good. My chickpea salad was tasty, but I wasn’t expecting the chickpeas to be so firm. The chocolate babka was great, not too sweet. The staff was attentive and the service was prompt. Nice atmosphere too, casual and welcoming.“

“While being a small restaurant (it's pretty much a kitchen only with outdoor seatings), the food is absolutely delicious! Arguably the best chicken Tikka masala I have had in San Jose. I have brought some of my friends here and even they had nothing but great reviews for this place.

Update: I can strongly say that the chicken tikka masala, chicken boti sizzler, and mango lassi at Zareen's are god-tier. I have taken many people (both Indians and non-Indians) and so far, I dont think I have met anyone yet who disagrees with me on this. It's soo good that one of my friends, who wasn't a fan of Indian food, got converted and loved Zareen's. I cant stress this enough, you need to go eat at this place when you get a chance.“

“The experience of dining there was next level. From start to finish they have perfected the dining experience. Food, staff, and ambiance was five star!“

“Steins is a great restaurant with a wide beer selection! They also sponsor the annual MV Oktoberfest!“

“The Doppio Zero Pizza will change your life!“

“Best vegan food in Palo Alto. I eat here as often as I can. FYI, it's cash only for smaller orders. Very highly recommended.“

“Best place for pastries and bread in town. Nothing fancy, just great pastries.“

“I recently visited this place and I was absolutely impressed! The food is incredibly fresh and delicious, with every dish made from high-quality ingredients. You can truly taste the difference in every bite. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the staff is friendly and attentive. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick bite or a leisurely meal, this place never disappoints. Highly recommend to anyone looking for great food and a pleasant dining experience!“

“Tantalizing your taste buds with each and whey bite. From the complimentary papadum to whatever dish ordered, this restaurant will delight your every desire. My favorites include the tandoori salmon and lamb saag, but you really can't go wrong with the menu. If you read this far, stop and place your order right now!“

“great place and nice food“

“Veggie Garden is one of my absolute favorite vegan Chinese spots, and it’s a place I keep going back to.
One of the best parts is that they can customize everything for allergies and even cater to my Jain dietary restrictions (no onions, no garlic, no potatoes). Since it’s fully vegan, there’s never any concern about hidden ingredients.

I’ve tried a good variety of dishes here, but my favorites are:
• Spring Rolls
• Vegan Hunan Tofu
• Vegan Orange Chicken
• Gobi Manchurian
• Green Thai Curry
• Basil Eggplant
• Basil Fried Rice

I even love passion fruit juice and vegan chocolate raspberry pastry that they offer here.

Every dish is flavorful, satisfying, and made with care. Highly recommend this place whether you’re vegan, Jain, or just someone who loves delicious plant-based food! 🌱🍜“

“Love their foods, so delicious and fancy will bring my family & friends there again!!“

“The food was incredible. I wanted to order almost everything on the menu. So will have to come back at least couple more times to try everything to look good and we couldn’t order in one night. Our old fashion cocktail and blackberry Mojito were perfect. And I can’t say enough about considerate, professional service.“

“friendly staff, monstrous upon great broth“

“I ordered an eggless and sugar-substituted birthday cake for my mom and was trying this place for the first time. It was a very pleasant experience right from placing an order to pick up. I was able to customise the cake to be eggless, sugar-free and less creamy. The cake was very tasty, soft and just as desired!

Dietary restrictions: Eggless & sugar-free cake options available“

“Welcoming atmosphere, very kind staff, and wonderful food!“

“Have been going to this place lately. Fresh and delicious. The price is pretty good for 1 combo with sides.“

“Been going here my whole life. We know the family and are very close. Amazing food, amazing service, amazing atmosphere.“

“Dining here is like eating with family. The short rib ragu is so good we have to force ourselves to try something else. The current scallop and shrimp appetizer has the most delicious lemon butter sauce we had to ask for their homemade bread just to soak up the sauce after eating all the shellfish.“

“grilled cheese/ with veggies“

“Was looking for fresh delectable sushi while I was visiting Cali. This spot popped up on Google maps so I thought I'd give it a try. It 100% did not disappoint. The service was amazing & the sushi was delicious. I got a miso soup, 2 rolls & a specialty beverage all for $50 (including tip).
I will definitely come back again when I'm in town.“

“Great, friendly service! Food was yummy too!“

“The owner and staff were incredibly kind and treated me like family. The tempura was the best I’ve ever had crispy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious! The sushi was fresh and tasted amazing, and the sushi boat was especially fresh and delightful. I highly recommend this place“

“I’m not usually that kind of person that likes to leave reviews!! But this place is awesome �!! Great food, clean place, third time here and will definitely come back whenever I’m in the area .“

“Our family went to the downtown MV Pokéworks on Friday afternoon to do take out and were delighted to find this location on Castro Street nicely blocked off, shaded, with ample clean and widely spaced seating if you want to dine-outside. Really highly recommend this location of Pokeworks - you can order&pay online and the manager of this location is meticulous about safety and YUMMY food. They even have the Disneyland DoleWhip for dessert 🤤.“

“great 👍 love grandma's special been going there for years!“

“They have happy hour through 6pm daily which is good to know. Cocktails were good as well the pizza. The only we had is the clams linguine came in red sauce instead of white, server said he didn't hear it, realized he didn't even repeat the order or the option, was giving it a try even we hate seafood pasta in red sauce, just like you are having red wine with seafood. Pasta was over cooked and salty. The clams were fresh. Waited a while for bill even the restaurant was only 1/3 full. Not a pleasant visit compared to last time during thanksgiving. It was full house but service was quick and food was flawless.“

“First time visiting. Delighted to find a hand-pulled noodle soup place in DT MV.

Noodle portion is good. Would love the width of the flat noodles be half of its current size.

The on-the-house cabbage appetizer could serve w/o jalapeños as my mouth was burning even after I took them out & put the cabbage into my Chef’s Beef noodle soup.

Friendly staff. Glad to see fe/male restrooms.

Frozen dumplings made-to-go.

Will be back to taste other items!“

“Fresh air and warm . Food was awesome and they give you yours moneys worth“

“Vengan a probar la comida en este lugar es muy rica fresca sabor como echa en casa muy recomendable“

“Excellent food, bier selection, and outdoor seating! Traditional fare is fab as is the fish & chips.“

“Great sushi! Must get the omakase nigiri or Toyosu special!“

“Las pizzas están bien ricas“

“Came here for the first time with our pup and had the best experience. The servers were SO nice, not just to us but to our pup too, which honestly made our day. They brought her water and gave her lots of love. Food was great, vibes were super relaxed, and we felt really taken care of. Definitely coming back. They also have draft beer“

“Moderately expensive sandwich place with a Peet's coffee station in a different area of the cafe. Good varied selection to choose from. However note that they do not take cash! You pay using credit or debit card only. Also the paper receipt I got had faded ink so some places so be careful if u need it for business reimbursements. They give you an indicator which will light up when your order is ready and you have to come by to pick up your order. You can get free regular water from a fountain tap or buy the bottled water or other drinks. Sandwich I got was of moderate size and tasted fine. They have outdoor tables with overhead umbrellas to shade against the sun.“

“Amazing shrimp quesidilla highly recommend this fabulous place on Castro St Mountain View“

“I had an amazing dining experience at kirin house
The food was absolutely outstanding — the seafood was incredibly fresh, the chicken was tender and flavorful, and every dish was beautifully presented. My personal favorites were the prawns and lobster, cooked to perfection and full of flavor.

The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, perfect for gatherings with family and friends. The staff were attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was just right throughout the meal.

If you’re looking for authentic flavors, generous portions, and a memorable dining experience, I highly recommend this restaurant. Definitely worth five stars!“

“One of the BEST hot pot places I have ever been. The rich and tasty broths of any soup that is made has an intense flavor that makes you come back for more. Anything you add will take a flavor note from the hot pot so decadently you’ll just want to get it coming. They have a wider verity of vegetables, meats, and add ins that you can find at most hot pot places. The only thing strange was peppa pig was playing on the TV, which was very odd for a 8pm friday night.“

“very great service, one of the best I had, will repeat“

“The vintage DragonBallZ sodas made my day!! The service was fast & the 15min wait for spring rolls was WORTH IT—everything was delicious and they made us smile the whole time. What a neighborhood treasure!

Vegetarian options: spring rolls, egg rolls, & a veg/vegan banh mi option!

Dietary restrictions: Great vegan & vegetarian options!

Kid-friendliness: Check out the anime-themed sodas for the kids!

Wheelchair accessibility: Very accessible!“

“A single chicken tostada was about the right size for an old man with a slender appetite, and quite tasty. Next time I'll sit further from the loudspeakers.

At 11+ on a Saturday, this place seems popular with Spanish-speaking crews on lunch break.“

“this is the best deli ever. all the food is good“

“I went in today and I must say the type of customer service I got was amazing!!! Didn’t get her name but was a short Hispanic lady!! She went above and beyond to help me find some jalapeños chips(she went to the back to check) also her attitude was just amazing!!!“

“Good food, pleasant atmosphere, friendly staff. This is located inside the corner of the Computer Museum on the first floor. Surrounded on 2 sides by glass, when we went there the self driving car was parked to one side. We ordered a grilled cheese sandwich and got a hand made sandwich and a small, delicious, salad that we shared before touring the museum. If the day is nice, you can also sit outside and enjoy the food and the weather. Definitely recommend this restaurant as a good place to get a snack or meal while at the museum.“

“This place is a neighborhood gem! We keep coming back to Pho Avenue for its wonderfully fresh and flavorful food in a relaxed, casual setting. The staff is always so welcoming (Vin, in particular, is great!), which makes every visit a pleasure.

A huge plus is their dedicated vegetarian menu section, with plenty of delicious and vegan-friendly choices. My go-to order is the #17 Vermicelli Noodle with Tofu. Pro tip: For a little extra, I swap the fried egg roll for their amazing vegetarian summer rolls.

If you’re craving something more spicy, try the #16. White Rice - Chilli Lemongrass Tofu Spicy.

Just a heads-up: parking in the area can be tricky during peak lunch times, but it's always been worth the effort for us. Highly recommend!“

“We had the most amazing dinner at the restaurant. We were there all weekend. The staff is amazing. The food is out of this world. If you are in the area, you must stop there thank you. I’ve never eaten such an amazing pasta dish and I love Italian food and you guys nailed it and let’s not even start with the lamb chops. Omg. I need to come back again soon.“

“Their food is so good it should be illegal!“

“Chill place in the middle of Mountain View for bagels, donuts, breakfast and sandwiches.

I got an everything bagel with egg, cheese and turkey. It was pretty good I enjoyed it and I’ll probably come back. Overall they have a large variety of options and it’s comparable in quality to a New York bagel shop. They have a nice terrace outdoor.“
